HE DEMOCRATS DIVIDED DUMB VOTE WITH FKKK ER REPl'BUCANB uanle To Agree Oil a Policy President's Message said To be In Opposition To The Demo cratic Mai for iu At Sea. Washington, Aug. 9. Almost every Democratic senator was present tit the irty caucus held this morning. The meeting convened at 10:30 o'clock, and ben the hour of noon urnved nothing definite had been accomplished and ad journment was taken until Immediately ftcr the adjournment of the Senate, The resolution of Mr. Hale, Republi can, yesterday, which so suddenly and unexpectedly brought the question oi a pecdy repeal of the Sherman law before the Senate, it was thought by some Democrats placed them in a position where a conference became necessary in rder that the policy of the party might be discussed and unanimaty of action nirrecd noon. As niichtbeexprctcd, with the Democrats divided upon this subject, as are the Republicans, there was a di versity of opinion a vast amount ol talk was indulged in with the inevitable re sult of nothing being determined upon when the hour came around. The discussion was decidedly animated and at times there was a tinge of sar casm in the tones of those who were in clined to look upon the attitude of the Frcsidcnt, as tlclincd in his message, as being in opposition to the platform of the Democratic purty. Mo dclinite proposition was advanced, ana wlien the caucus adourncd it was just as much at sea as when it was called to gether. Immediately alter t nc caucus numer ous conferences were had between the free silver Democrats and the Republicans of the same persuasion, the result of which was apparent when, as soon as the journal was rend, a motion was made to adjourn and it was noticeable that the silver Republicans voted with the Democrats to carry out that propo sition. This was t.ikcn as an evidence of a desire for time, and tbc caucus im mediately reassembled. Ibc Deinoctats will endeavor to reach some conclusion this afternoon. If this question is dis posed of. the subject of patronage of the Senate will also be taken and a dis tribution of offices be agreed upon pro vided there be no division upon tuat matter. RliSPONSinil.ITV. The KepubllcaiiH Mot Keudv To AHSumc Any Of II Washington, Aug. I). The Republican Senators held a caucus yesterday morn' ing in the rooms of Senator Sherman aud discussed the situation from various points of view. The senators from the West mingled lrcclywiln the gold men from the East and talked over financial affairs in an unimnassioned manner. There was one thing upon w men tuc senators agreed, however they might differ on other matters, and that was that the Sherman law was not alone responsible for the lack ol confidence now existing in the minds of the people. One Senator made a speech in which he took the ground that lear ot lntcrlcrcnce bv the Democrats with the tariff had done more than anything else to sow the seeds of distrust throughout the land. This seiitimeut was voiced by others present. It was agreed that the Democrats must assume responsibility for all that was done, hut that at the same time the Re publicans would be guided by patriotic impulses and do what they thought was proper to help the country in remedying - 'i. .i i .... a ii . cvus mat were ucucvcu 10 caim. uvui orrntie President had called ConuresS to jiethcr and whatever was done must be proposed by that side of the chamber and upon tuat party tne consequences would fall. Matters of patronage was discussed and the caucus committee ol last year, consisting of Senators McMillan, Proc tor, lones, Wolcott, Soup, Aldncli, mg- gins und Davis were authorized to wait upon the Democratic caucus committee and sec what the party intended to give the minority, aud report at tuc next conference.

How Ihe Mewinice Wan Keccived at That Reftott. Hut Springs, N. C, Aug. 1). Thanks to the prompt delivery of Tub Citizen, the President's message to Congress so eagerly looked for, came to hand yester day evening and was read by the many interested guests of the Mountain I'ark hotel with much gratification. Col. McGhec, one of the receivers of the E. T. Va. & Oa. railroad, expressed him self ns much pleased; said it was a plain, straightforward, concise document and to the point, and should not tail to re ceive the endorsement of the country at large and prompt action by Congress. Major I'oindexter of Mississippi fully endorses the views as expressed by the I resident. Colonel Mathcson of Au gusta, Ga., terms the message, like every thing coming from ''resident Cleveland, as sensible and eminently practicable, una believes Congress will act in accord ance with the recommendations as to the prompt repeal of the Sherman law. Colonel I'. Yunlicntbuysan of Columbia, S. C, considers the document as admira ble and should receive the immediate and favorable action of Congress. Col. (jillum ol Louisiana, a prolound thinker and scholar with eminently prac tical but conservative views, after most carefully reading and pondering over the message, is ot the opinion that the 1 resi dent's points are well taken and logical ind ought to hnd a response. Dr. U. W. Prentiss of Washington, U. C, said : "The President's message is just what it ought to be." r-urtner than that the Doctor suggests the lol lowing: "Repeal Sherman act, make silver money on basis of gold value, make all government obligations re deemable in gold or silver certificates, but as promises to pay, bused on the credit of the United States, and abolish national bank system ami let the gov ernment issue the money."
